"He now became addicted to drugs!!" said Doctor aunty pushing up his closed eyelids. "See his bloodshot eyes seemed like he never stopped taking drugs" said she. My caressing hands stopped at her words on his forehead. "What do you mean Doctor?" Dhruv asked. "I mean in between the duration he had been discharged from the hospital and today, he still was taking drugs, he never stopped it. Today he didn't got it and turned wild." Aunty explained. I and Dhruv shared a confused glance. "What now Doctor? What can we do?" asked I. "Thapki... We have to send him to rehab centre." she said caressing my shoulder. I was shocked.... No I can't leave him there. "No Aunty is there any other way?" I asked. "Thapki try to understand. He'll get better treatment there" Dhruv said. "But...." I tried to utter when "It is for him" said Dhruv. "Okay I need to leave for other patients. Thapki... Don't feel hesitated in sharing anything to me" she assured. "And yes do confirm that he's going to rehab centre... I'll admit him soon" said she and left after caressing my hair. I don't know why my heart was stuck at not to send him there. I don't know what was that feeling... I was scared or.... I don't know.
"But Bauji left that day itself!! How can he get drugs then?" said Dhruv grabbing me out of my thoughts. There was something.... Somewhere we aren't able to figure out. Something was missing. "Who was the second person?" Di asked. Yes she's right!! The second person!! We didn't yet had identified him. "Thapki play that video" said Di. I grabbed my bag from the sofa and pulled out my phone from it, as faster I could be. "Dhruv can you identify the person?" Di asked playing the video. Dhruv looked concentrated. "No" He said killing our hopes. But it's fine.... It's not his fault. Tears rolled down my cheeks. He was still lying in the same position... Without any movement. My hands shivered. I can't see him like this. Di, who was standing behind Dhruv came to console me. "I'm helpless Di... The more I try to help him the more he gets hurt" I cried placing my head on her belly and hands around her waist. She embraced me kissing my head. "No Thapki... Everything will be fine" she said caressing my hair. "I'm blank Di... I'm helpless" I cried. She was silently consoling me. "You are brave Thapki... And don't forget that you are my sister... You can never lose hope" she said. I was motivated a bit. "Bad times come to make you meet with good people" she said wiping my tears. "And see... He met you. Cause you are the only one who can stand with him holding his hands." she smiled kissing my forehead. The urge to fight for Bihaan again raised in me. The hope I was loosing again raised in me. "You can only help him to come out from his every wounds" she said and I nodded wiping my tears. "As I said that you are made for each other.... That was just to tease you that day.... But Thapki... See it is becoming true" she smiled caressing my arms. "We will be together.... But you have to be strong... For him... Like him" said she. "You are the best Di" I hugged her again. "I know that" she winked looking at me and at Dhruv. He was not in the room. "Where's he gone!!" we shared a surprised look. "You sit here I'll see him" Di left and I nodded.
I, suddenly felt something wet on my arm. Wait. I rolled my hand and was shocked to find some blood droplets. It means Shraddha Di's injured hand is hurt. God. I left to her and was amazed when I found Dhruv was crying hugging Di in his room. She too slowly hugged him. "What I did to my brother" He cried. "This is all my fault.... I should have never left him alone... He faced everything alone.... I destroyed his life" He cried. "Relax Dhruv... It was not your fault... The situations weren't in your hands that's it" she consoled caressing his back. My heart cracked after seeing them. I leaned myself on the door wall..... They didn't noticed me. Situations are really hard for all four of us. Specially for my Bihaan... He doesn't even knows about how his life has been destroyed. I wiped my tears. "Had you seen him!!!.... How can any brother be so mean!!" He cried. I again peeped in managing guts to face their tears. "He's the same Bihaan with whom I used to play all day." He said breaking the hug. "Dhruv... You are still best brothers" said Di wiping his tears when Dhruv noticed her hands. "Oh My God it's bleeding" He said holding her hand. "It's fine Dhruv...." Di tried to utter when he rushed to her with a first aid kit. I was glad seeing their concern for each other. He made her sit on bed and was carefully doing her dressing placing himself beside her. I looked at Di. How happy she looks when they are together. I was leaving to Bihaan's room.
